Cielo, or formerly Pinstripe, recognized as a global leader in strategic Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) partnerships, has announced that it has envisioned an inclusion and diversity certification program for its over 2,000 employees spread across the globe. The program will help Cielo recruiters, interview leads, and talent coordinators action the key skills and knowledge capabilities to strengthen and support client's D&I plans.

As part of the certification, Cielo employees will have to complete a number of courses on core areas, such as diversity, unconscious bias, veteran retention, and sourcing approaches, as well as the increasing movement for the presence of women in leadership roles.

In fact, globally this is a critical space; most business heads now consider inclusion and diversity as a major priority (Deloitte 2017 Global Human Capital Trends report), and it has been proved to enhance candidate experiences and employee engagement, finally leading to enriched financial profitability.

"At Cielo, we have a shared cultural belief that we achieve more when we create an environment that is fair, collaborative, inclusive and reflective of the communities in which we live and work. Not only is it right thing to do, it's also the best business strategy, as diversity has a strong correlation with financial performance."

Cielo, as mentioned, is known as an RPO leader, is at a unique position to spearhead enlightened D&I hiring practices. The certification program comes on the heels of the announcement that the company is the first RPO major to commit to a CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion. This is geared to share data, develop ideas, and build frameworks for the cultivation of D&I, across 70 industries and millions of workers.
